Scripps shut down

I appreciate xfinity position however I signed up for locals stations and am not getting what was purchased/promised. I urge you to find a quick solution to the problem of not having local channel 7 in Denver.

Hello @user_gh3yix We routinely renew and negotiate contracts with all of our broadcasters. We are currently in negotiation with Scripps looking for a deal that will work for both parties. We will send customers an update whenever a final decision has been reached on the Scripps owned networks.

Same issue in Detroit. I'm [Edited: "Language"] because I also pay a fee for local networks. Now I don'e have ABC. These little things and price increases are really getting to me. I have been a customeer for over 30 years. NEVER once late on a payment. What reward do I get? "What's free this week", a list of old movies. I'm thinking about canceling you outright. FIX THIS ISSUE!!!

Getting less service without an accompanying rate reduction is actual a price increase.  Please fix this now.

Thanks for reaching out about the loss of channels owned by E. W. Scripps, @user_x6l77g. This programming is currently unavailable as Comcast’s agreement with the network has expired. Please know Comcast pays programmers to bring you the entertainment you love, and a number of reasonable offers have been made that they haven’t accepted. Comcast is working toward bringing back this programming, but only with fair pricing, terms, and conditions for customers. I know unexpected changes to your TV lineup can be frustrating, and I apologize for any inconvenience. For more information, visit https://www.xfinity.com/programmingchanges.
